## The honest read

A 2026 customer who let the tank run out of oil said an oil truck pulled up a half hour after the call, and a tech came before noon to bleed the lines and get everything running. Seymour Oil & Propane describes itself on its website as a family-owned local business and names Seymour as its service area. A local TV news site has reported that Allen's also owns Seymour Oil & Propane.

A 2026 customer wrote that they were low enough to worry about running out of oil that evening, and the company made a same-day delivery. A 2026 customer said that when the heat went out on the coldest day of the year, David and Robert arrived within an hour or two and had the furnace serviced and the heat restored within an hour. A 2026 customer said service techs Bob and Holio installed a new boiler. A recent customer needed an oil pump installed and got service the same day. A recent customer says the team completed a boiler cleaning, a hot water heater cleaning and a mini split. A recent customer's A/C unit at first could not be fixed, and when the techs came back with the capacitor it worked.

A 2024 customer said Rob Pertoso worked with their general contractor to arrange the installation and inspection of a 500 gallon underground propane tank and new lines, and was on site for the work. A 2026 customer said Shawn arrived late at night to fill a critically low propane tank because the company has a remote monitor on it.

A recent customer who bought the filter themselves says they were charged $290 for bleeding the furnace and installing it, a job that took about two minutes. A 2025 customer said scheduling was messier than it needed to be, the work took four visits instead of the original two, and the techs were a few hours late on two of the days, though that customer called the price the best they found. A 2024 customer said technicians arrived 8 hours after the scheduled time, the boiler failed again with the same error code less than 24 hours later, and the company charged a second $300 service call. A 2024 customer wrote that the company stopped delivering oil to their mother, saying it takes too long to fill a tank on a hill. A 2023 customer said a mistake during a standard oil delivery left them with no heat in the winter and the company would not acknowledge the error.

**Strengths:**
- Same-day oil delivery — a 2026 customer got oil the day they called
- Furnace emergency — a 2026 customer had heat restored on the coldest day
- A boiler cleaning — a recent customer says the team completed it

**Concerns:**
- A $290 service charge — a recent customer called it high for two minutes
- Repeat service call — a 2024 customer was charged again after a misdiagnosis
- Hillside oil delivery — a 2024 customer said deliveries stopped over the hill
